Thematic investing has become particularly popular since the COVID-19 pandemic, and according to the latest research now has a combined $500b in AUM. Many investors are drawn to the precision that thematic vehicles offer, capturing changes in the economy, such as energy transition or evolving consumer patterns, that are more specific and nuanced than traditional sector or industry funds are capable of targeting. However, this approach is of course not without inherent risks. How can thematic fund providers best position their products to help investors succeed in the long run? What constitutes real change versus mere hype? And when is the right time to enter and exit these investments?

Join us for this exclusive, virtual half-day summit which will gather experts in thematic investing, ranging from researchers, investors and distributors to discuss high growth opportunities and portfolio management tools for 2021 and beyond.
